The Book of the Prohibited actions

Prohibition of Swearing in the name of anything besides Allah

عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُمَا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ‏:‏ ‏"‏إِنَّ اللَّه تَعَالَى يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ، فَمَنْ كَانَ حَالِفاً، فَلْيَحْلِفْ بِاَللَّهِ، أَوْ لِيَصْمُتْ‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ وفي رواية في الصحيح ‏"‏فمن كَانَ حَالِفًا فَلاَ يَحْلِفْ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ أو ليسكت‏"‏‏.‏

Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah has prohibited you from taking an oath by your fathers. He who must take an oath, may do so by swearing in the Name of Allah or he should remain silent." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
